Lovense has introduced Glint, a new vibrating anal plug designed for couples, featuring a touch-responsive base that synchronizes stimulation with a partner's movements during intercourse. This device aims to offer a more integrated experience by adjusting its vibration based on skin contact, angle, and duration.

The Glint vibrating anal plug was debuted by Lovense in Singapore on October 20, 2026. The product is designed to enhance intercourse by synchronizing anal stimulation with a partner's thrust, aiming for a more intense and connected dual penetration experience. The device is now available directly from lovense.com.

Touch-Responsive Technology

Glint distinguishes itself from other couple toys by taking its cues from the couple's own movement rather than relying solely on a phone or remote. The plug is worn anally, with its base remaining outside the body. An external sensor in the base reads skin contact, specifically how much of the base is covered, the angle of contact, and its duration. This information is then used to adjust the vibration across five intensity levels.

A representative for Lovense explained that when inserted, the plug's external sensor reads the base's angle, speed, and coverage of the partner. It then adjusts its vibration to match the frequency and intensity of contact. For instance, a fingertip prompts a smaller response, while a palm or a partner’s thrust against the base during intercourse triggers stronger stimulation.

Dan Liu, CEO of Lovense, stated that the company has been considering the question of what a toy for couples to use during sex should look like and do, and how it should stand apart from existing couple toys. Liu expressed confidence that Glint provides a distinctive answer and hopes it will change couples' views and habits regarding toys during sex.

Customization and Integration

Users configure Glint through the Lovense Remote app. Within the app, users can choose a preferred sensitivity and one of three response types. The "Pulse" mode delivers up to three rhythmic pulses per touch-and-hold. The "Sustain" mode maintains vibration for as long as skin stays on the base. The "Crescendo" mode starts with a low vibration, builds intensity while contact continues, and then resets. Once these settings are configured, the device operates automatically without requiring further phone interaction.

Glint's design emphasizes compactness, measuring 21.5mm (0.84 inches) and weighing 55 grams. This size positions it as an option for individuals new to anal toys and for couples seeking to incorporate stimulation into partnered sex without competing for space during intercourse. The compact design addresses a common objection heard by stores regarding wearable couple vibrators.

The device also pairs with the Lovense Remote app and can synchronize with several of the company's other pleasure products for matching stimulation through Lovense’s Toy Sync feature. Compatible devices include the Edge 2 prostate massager, Lush 4, and Gush 2 Motion. An optional feature, Touch Records, is disabled by default but allows users to review contact frequency and duration after a session.
